Jeremiah 48:28
Verse 28 of 47. The 48th of 52 chapters in Jeremiah, in The Major Prophets.
24on Kerioth, on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
25The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken,” says the LORD.
26“Make him drunk, for he magnified himself against the LORD. Moab will wallow in his vomit, and he also will be in derision.
27For wasn’t Israel a derision to you? Was he found among thieves? For as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.
28You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock. Be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
29“We have heard of the pride of Moab. He is very proud in his loftiness, his pride, his arrogance, and the arrogance of his heart.
30I know his wrath,” says the LORD, “that it is nothing; his boastings have done nothing.
31Therefore I will wail for Moab. Yes, I will cry out for all Moab. They will mourn for the men of Kir Heres.
32With more than the weeping of Jazer I will weep for you, vine of Sibmah. Your branches passed over the sea. They reached even to the sea of Jazer. The destroyer has fallen on your summer fruits and on your vintage.
